Types

type Agent

type Agent interface {
	Work() chan<- *Work
	SetReturnCh(chan<- *Result)
	Stop()
	Start()
	GetHashRate() int64
}

Agent can register themself with the worker

type Backend

type Backend interface {
	AccountManager() *accounts.Manager
	BlockChain() *core.BlockChain
	TxPool() *core.TxPool
	ChainDb() ethdb.Database
}

Backend wraps all methods required for mining.

type CpuAgent

type CpuAgent struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

func NewCpuAgent

func NewCpuAgent(index int, pow pow.PoW) *CpuAgent

func (*CpuAgent) GetHashRate

func (self *CpuAgent) GetHashRate() int64

func (*CpuAgent) Pow

func (self *CpuAgent) Pow() pow.PoW

func (*CpuAgent) SetReturnCh

func (self *CpuAgent) SetReturnCh(ch chan<- *Result)

func (*CpuAgent) Start

func (self *CpuAgent) Start()

func (*CpuAgent) Stop

func (self *CpuAgent) Stop()

func (*CpuAgent) Work

func (self *CpuAgent) Work() chan<- *Work

type Miner

type Miner struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Miner creates blocks and searches for proof-of-work values.

func New

func New(eth Backend, config *params.ChainConfig, mux *event.TypeMux, pow pow.PoW) *Miner

func (*Miner) GasPrice

func (m *Miner) GasPrice() *big.Int

func (*Miner) HashRate

func (self *Miner) HashRate() (tot int64)

func (*Miner) Mining

func (self *Miner) Mining() bool

func (*Miner) Pending

func (self *Miner) Pending() (*types.Block, *state.StateDB)

Pending returns the currently pending block and associated state.

func (*Miner) PendingBlock

func (self *Miner) PendingBlock() *types.Block

PendingBlock returns the currently pending block.

Note, to access both the pending block and the pending state simultaneously, please use Pending(), as the pending state can change between multiple method calls

func (*Miner) Register

func (self *Miner) Register(agent Agent)

func (*Miner) SetEtherbase

func (self *Miner) SetEtherbase(addr common.Address)

func (*Miner) SetExtra

func (self *Miner) SetExtra(extra []byte) error

func (*Miner) SetGasPrice

func (m *Miner) SetGasPrice(price *big.Int)

func (*Miner) Start

func (self *Miner) Start(coinbase common.Address, threads int)

func (*Miner) Stop

func (self *Miner) Stop()

func (*Miner) Unregister

func (self *Miner) Unregister(agent Agent)

type RemoteAgent

type RemoteAgent struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

func NewRemoteAgent

func NewRemoteAgent() *RemoteAgent

func (*RemoteAgent) GetHashRate

func (a *RemoteAgent) GetHashRate() (tot int64)

GetHashRate returns the accumulated hashrate of all identifier combined

func (*RemoteAgent) GetWork

func (a *RemoteAgent) GetWork() ([3]string, error)

func (*RemoteAgent) SetReturnCh

func (a *RemoteAgent) SetReturnCh(returnCh chan<- *Result)

func (*RemoteAgent) Start

func (a *RemoteAgent) Start()

func (*RemoteAgent) Stop

func (a *RemoteAgent) Stop()

func (*RemoteAgent) SubmitHashrate

func (a *RemoteAgent) SubmitHashrate(id common.Hash, rate uint64)

func (*RemoteAgent) SubmitWork

func (a *RemoteAgent) SubmitWork(nonce uint64, mixDigest, hash common.Hash) bool

Returns true or false, but does not indicate if the PoW was correct

func (*RemoteAgent) Work

func (a *RemoteAgent) Work() chan<- *Work

type Result

type Result struct {
	Work  *Work
	Block *types.Block
}

type Work

type Work struct {
	Block *types.Block // the new block
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Work is the workers current environment and holds all of the current state information
